Venting
I wonder if it is dumb of me to pray and plead God for my hair back? Sometimes I think it is just hopeless. Now don't get me wrong I am strong in my belief but, I've given up all hope that one day my hair will return to me. Its honestly the most depressing thing i've had to go through in my 24 years of life. I probably sound like a whiny brat right now but its like i'm fighting this battle alone and i'm drowning in my own fears, doubts, insecurities, and tears. I honestly try to stay as positive as I possibly can but as the days roll past and I see no progress it gets harder. It gets hard for me to look at myself in the mirror without the wig and the makeup. I don't know it just seems like nothing is going my way...to go from long beautiful hair to nothing at all is devastating...hopefully one day things will get better.

All I can say is hang in there. I think it's ok to pray for your hair, we are going through a mourning process (I am right there with you). I think I'm in a witness protection program when I see myself with my wig and newly drawn eyebrows.
Be gentle with yourself and I hope you are able to focus on the positive aspects of your life. Try to focus on something else (I know it sounds impossible). I had to find a way to occupy myself so I wouldn't spend every waking moment scouring the internet for answers. I made a new knitted loom hat and scarf just to keep myself occupied (and I am not a knitter)! Is there anyone you can talk to - close friend or family member?
Wishing you the best during this trial - I'm not sure if your situation will change (or if mine will change) but I do think that we will get through this.
